Looking for an ideal setting for your next corporate retreat? GrayBarns is a unique environment that fosters fresh ideas, and inspires your team with potential and purpose. Located an hour from downtown NYC, GrayBarns is situated in the historic district of Silvermine, CT along the Silvermine River and Guthrie Falls. With a variety of naturally informed spaces to accommodate new perspectives and team growth, GrayBarns is prepared to help you meet your bespoke needs. The Silvermine area delights with its painterly landscapes and provides a welcome change from the hustle and bustle of New York City daily life. The tavern hosted Elizabeth Taylor and Eddie Fisher on their honeymoon and received frequent visits from Hollywood heartthrob Spencer Tracy. True to its unique history, GrayBarns on the Silvermine River has remained the ideal setting to unite city slickers, international travelers and the local community over food and libations, relaxation and leisure. Once very popular as a village meeting place, GrayBarns served as an artist outpost, and stagecoach stop dating back to the 17th century. What is now GrayBarns on the Silvermine River, owned and operated by the Glazer family, began as a small textile factory at the turn of the 19th century. It became a speakeasy during the 1920s before legitimizing itself after the end of Prohibition. Throughout the 1960s it thrived as a classic country inn. The Inn at GrayBarns boasts six beautifully appointed king suites, all featuring luxurious full baths, spacious bedrooms and comfortable living areas. With a nod to Silvermine’s prolific past, the original post and beam structure, reclaimed wood and wide plank oak floors tie each room to the natural environment. Custom design elements and classic details, combined with contemporary fixtures manifest a sophisticated blend of the past, present and future. Each room highlights its unique layout with features such as gas fireplaces and balconies. Tavern at GrayBarns helmed by Executive Chef Ben Freemole is a true gathering place for locals and guests seeking a destination culinary experience. The main dining room and bar area offer a warm and intimate dining experience that highlights New American cuisine, assimilating flavors and techniques from traditional American cooking. Fusing history and traditionalism with fiercely powerful flavors, Tavern showcases relationships with local farms and purveyors and utilizes its own kitchen garden to enhance other seasonal ingredients.
